Best Horses in Years Will Race at Randall Stables Still Arriving From Chicago, New England Sectors RANDALL PARK, North Randall, Ohio, June 26. "The best horses will campaign at Randall Park this summer since I have been acquainted with racing in this sector," is the confident statement made by the Randall Park Racing Associations newly appointed racing secretary, Luther Henderson Van Zandt. "I believe that this 44-day season will mark the beginning of a new era for racing at this plant, and my op-1 timism increases daily as phone, calls and telegrams pour into my office for stall reservations." So states Van Zandt, and his thoughts seem to be well backed by facts, with a glance at the requests made by horsemen to racing during the meeting, which begins July 2. The racing secretary and his staff are working in co-operation with track superintendent Matt Nelson in improving the conditions of the stable area, so that everything will be spic and span when all of the approximate number of 1,000 thoroughbreds arrive. Several stables, large and small, have already shipped here from the Chicago : area and surprising even to the manage-j ment is the number of reservation requests I from Narragansett Park. Of the many establishments that have notified they will ship to this point from the East is the New Orleans-owned Felix Rando stable trained by A. J. Tusa. This shipment will consist of 10 head, including Camps First, a recent winner at Suffolk Downs; O. K. Joe, Hy Rickey, Tommil Tom, Atomic Age, Up Front, Plahders First, Bet B.s First and the latter nameds dam, Beth B. Other stables to come from Narragansett are those of H. H. Brown with 15 head; Orlando Hernandez, eight; A. C. Dylesky, for; Pete Petrucci, five; Anthony Graf-fagnini, seven; J. M. Lingle, four; J. Carrara, six; Bud Tiller, four; Victory Borielo, four, and Andrew Gazzale, two. Ralph Bohn has informed Van Zandt that he will arrive from Chicago with his large public stable of 17 head Monday, and lists among his charges the consistent racers, Vinita Dot, Spring Folly and Alan F. Other new additions to the Chicago exodus are W. Marsh, with three head; D. F. Fredrick, four; L. S. Busby, two, and Milton Ressequet, who has already checked in with the horses, Whyso, Valdina Loria, Taters, Nevermo, Paid Up and Rex Damion.
